To all whomfz't may concern.' j

Be itrknown that I, ALBIN Salman, 'a ,oitif 4-Zen of lthe; United States, residing; at :Cleve- ,flahdLinthe county Vof Guyahoga and State ot Qhio, have invented a new yand useful 'ValleRadiator Support, of which the; following 'is a specification. f

This' invention relates Vto improvements lin wall-radiator suports, andl pertains more i `"es.-`pfecially toa isu-p'port which 'comprises a `b'I"a f ket adapted to extend from within Lan Y -upriglit wallto and beyond the faee of said w'all, and'also comprises means'adapted to participate 4in supporting-fa radiator from said bracket.y i Y i @ne object of this invention is to avoid mutilation of'said wallbyfbolts or screws fin securing a wall-radiator support Atoysaid wall, tb render :said Isupportretlieient .fand` `highly practical, fand to facilitate an fac lcura-te installation of said'su-pport.

Another object is to Vfaoilitate the assemblage of .the vcon-iponent parts of @my improved `wall-radiator.1support, and to render said fsupport simple and durable inv construction.

With these objects in vieW,-and toattain other objects hereinafter Iappejaring,^this invention consists vfin kcertain 'features o con- :rangement of parts, hereinafter described in this specification, `pointed out linthe Y claims and illustratedin the accompanying drawmgS. i Y

In said drawings, Figure 1 is a central Vertical section of a wall-radiator support .embodying my invention, and illustratesssaid supportas applied to :a brick vwallshown `in section.

Said 'support also comprises an upright abutmentdnember 20.1preferably composed of a singler metal :piecev and 4adapt-- *ed to serve as anabutmentifor the ibac'k '.ofa wall-radiator R. VTheabutment#member220 extends opposite the Ifree extremity of and abolve and fbelow` Athe bracket `15.,andl is arranged adjaclentthiefeye 16.*

-The abutment-member 20- (see Figs. l and lhasa substantially horizontaliupper flange' .21 fseated on the yupperend .ofc andv therefore supportedv trein the'spaoing ytube tendin'gfunder and vspaced from the ffr'ee Tend 'ot' the bracket :1 5 and 'terminating @in downlagainst the wall 100 The eye 26 of a substantiallyr horizontal is therefore supported fromifthe lupperflange 2:1, and the shak 27 of vsaid 'bolt is shown 'as the,flfreeedfportion of saidsha'nk and 11'0 against a wedge-block 30 mounted on said shank and interposed between said nut and external surfaces of said radiator-sections.

A substantially vertical endwise adjustable rod 32 (see Figs. 1, 2 and 3) extends loosely through a hole 31 formed in and extending vertically through the upper flange 21 and registering with the spacing tube 18. Said rod extends loosely through said spacing tube and loosely through and above the eye 26 of the eye-bolt and loosely through the eye 16 of the bracke-t 15 and loosely through a hole 33 formed in the lower flange 22 and in line vertically with the upper flange 21. The eyes 16 and 26 and the spacing tube 18 are substantially in line vertically. The upper end portion of the rod 32 (see Figs. 1 and 3) is screw-threaded, and a nut 35 is screwed onto said rod above and against the bolt-eye 26. By the hereinbefore described construction and relative arrangement of the parts it will be observed that the eye-forming end portion of the eyebolt is interposed between the nut 35 and the upper flange 21 and extends circumferentially of the rod 32, and that said portion of said bolt and the spacing tube 18 are respectively arranged next above and next below said flange.

The rod 32 has means for forming a seat for the radiator, and, as shown in Fig. 1, said rod is provided,r below the lower Yflange 22, with a member 36 arranged to extend under a portion of the radiator R and serving as said seat. The rod 32 is long enough to permit vertical readjustment thereof independently of the abutment-member 20, and the nut 35 is manipulated to accommodate said readjustment of said rod.

The abutment-member 2O and the rod 32 are long enough to permit replacement of the illustrated spacing tube 18 by a somewhat shorter or longer spacing tube according as said abutment-member `is to be lowered or raised in relation to the bracketeye 16 independently of said rod, and the nut 35 and the hereinbefore mentioned eyebolt are readjusted vertically to accommodate vertical readjustment of said abutmentmember independently of said rod. I would here remark that the interposition of the spacing tube 18 between the bracket 15 and the upper flange 21 isfof vast importance to facilitate an accurate installation of my improved wall-radiator support.

What I claim'is:

1. A. wall-radiator support comprising a bracket adapted to extend from within a wall to and beyond the face of said wall, a rigid upright spacing tube supported on the free end of said bracket, an upright abutment-member which is adapted to form an abutment for the back of a wall-radiator and arranged opposite the free extremity of and extends above and below said bracket and has an upper flange supported on the spacing tube and a lower flange extending under and spaced from said bracket and adapted to abut against the aforesaid wall, an eye-bolt adapted to participate in holding the radiator against said abutment-member and having its eye supported on the aforesaid upper flange, an endwise adjustable rod which extends substantially vertically between and through said flanges and through the spacing tube and through and above said eye and has a screw-threaded upper end portion, and a nut screwed onto said rod above said eye, said rod being provided, below the aforesaid lower flange, with a member arranged to form a seat yfor the radiator, and said eye and the spacing tube being alined substantially vertically.

A wall-radiator support comprising a plate which is arranged on edge and adapted to extend from within an upright wall to and beyond the face of said wall and has its free end in the form of a substantially vertical eye, an upright abutment-member wl'iich is adapted to serve as an abutment for the back of a wall-radiator and extends above and below said eye and has anV upper flange supported from said plate and a lower flange extending under and spaced from said eye and adapted to abut against the aforesaid wall, and upright rod which has .a screwthreaded upper end portion and is provided below the aforesaid lowerflange with a seat for the radiator and extends between and through said flanges and through said eye, and a substantially horizontal bolt adapted to participate in holding the radiator against the .aforesaid abutment-member and having vles yto extend an end portion which is interposed between said nut and the aforesaid upperv flange and extends circuinferentially ofsaid rod.

4;. A wall-radiator support comprising a plate which from within an upright wall to and beyond the face of said'wall and Vhas its free end in the form of ka substantially vertical eye, an upright rigid spacing tube supported on and registering with said-eye, a

rigid upright abutment-member which isv adapted to serve as an abutment for the. back of a lwall-radiator and arranged ad-l jacent and extends above and below saideye and has an upper flange supported on the sparing tube and a lower flange extendingv under and spaced from saideye, an upright rod which has a screw-threaded upper end' is'arranged on edge and adapted i portion and extends through said eye and` through the spacing tube and through and below said lower flange and through and Vabove the laforesaidy upper flange and terminates, at its lower end, in a ineinber adapted to serve as a seat'for the' radiator,

Va nut threaded onto said rod'and spaced upwardly from said upper flange, and amsubstantially lio'rizontalbolt adapted to participate in holding theradiator against the aforesaid abutment-member and having an V end portion which is interposed between said upper 'flange and said nut and extends circumferentially of the aforesaid rod,

I testimony whereof, I sign the lforegoing specification.
